应当开启秘密之门并展示。第二部分,从下文“瑜伽士神圣的血统”到“是功德的大容器”之间所展示的内容是:那些持有并传承瑜伽士至高无上秘密真言之王的血统的人们,必须从这种血统之王的意义中进行确定性的考察,并如经典中的誓言一样守护和实践,这样的王子和高贵的种姓之子,因为是神圣的容器,所以要展示深奥难测的见解誓言的智慧,以及圆满展示二十四个修持誓言,以及二十三个苦行誓言,以及大瑜伽士的四种日常誓言等等,因为接近于果位的智慧成熟,所以对于显示至高无上喜乐的口诀能够容纳于心的人,要展示和讲述这些毫无错误的确定性誓言的教证。因此,要展示具有各种条件的道次第。那么,什么是道之初所需要的支分呢?这个誓言是所有道路和学修的前行,因此基础必须以誓言来把握,因此,深刻的见解等九种学修也都是首先要前行的。由于违犯与未违犯的两种异熟果都非常重大,因此也获得了如金刚般难以逾越的强烈誓言或誓言之名。因此,通过善恶力量强大的方式,守护这些极其难以守护的、如同狭窄兽道的道路誓言,为了从生老病死的境地中解脱出来,对于共同乘,即二十八条共同誓言,以及大秘密内道的自身特点,即四条特殊誓言等等的阐述,对于确定为秘密的誓言不应怀疑,而应以认真的态度,在平等的状态中坚定和稳固,不违犯地守护,那么这就是口诀和成就的功德的伟大容器,因此表明了在深刻意义的道路中,这也是果树的基础和根本。第二部分,从之前的内容延续,从“如何苦行”到“从战场上获胜”之间所展示的内容是:

The secret door should be opened and shown. The second part, from "The lineage of the holy yogi" to "Is a great vessel of merit," shows that those who hold and inherit the lineage of the king of the supreme secret mantra of the yogi must ascertain from the meaning of this kind of lineage king and protect and practice the vows of the scriptures as they are. Such a prince and noble son of the lineage, because he is a holy vessel, must be shown the wisdom of the profound and unfathomable vows of view, and the complete demonstration of the twenty-four practice vows, and the twenty-three ascetic vows, and the four daily vows of the great yogi, etc. Because he is close to the maturation of wisdom in the fruition, he should be shown and taught these infallible and certain vows of the teachings for those who can contain in their minds the instructions that show the supreme bliss. Therefore, the stages of the path with all its conditions should be shown. So, what is the limb needed at the beginning of the path? This vow precedes all paths and trainings, so the foundation must be grasped by the vow. Therefore, all nine trainings, such as profound views, must also be preceded first. Since both the ripened fruits of violation and non-violation are very great, it also obtains the name of a strong vow or oath that is as indestructible as a vajra. Therefore, through the powerful means of good and evil, one must protect these path vows, which are extremely difficult to protect and are like narrow animal paths, in order to be liberated from the state of birth, old age, sickness, and death. For the sake of the common vehicle, i.e., the twenty-eight common vows, and the special characteristics of the great secret inner path, i.e., the explanation of the four special vows, etc., one should not doubt the vows that are determined to be secret, but should be earnest, steadfast, and firm in a state of equanimity, and protect them without violation. Then, this is the great vessel of merit of the mantra and accomplishment. Therefore, it shows that in the path of profound meaning, this is also the foundation and root of the fruit tree. The second part, continuing from the previous content, from "How to practice asceticism" to "To be victorious in battle," shows that:

什么是共同阐述誓言的功德和比喻呢?正如经续中所说的那样,能够毫不退转地守护誓言的苦行,就能如愿以偿地获得功德。例如,它就像如意宝珠一样,能够实现我所期望的两种成就,并最终获得圆满的至高幸福。因此,一切持明者和诸佛都是从不退转誓言中产生的,所以誓言是他们的再生的母亲。同样,这至高苦行的神圣誓言,安住于誓言,是道路和果实所依赖的基础,所以也像大地一样。如果不退转誓言,就能滋养和保持伟大的菩提心,成为一切真实苦行的命脉,所以也就像生命力一样。例如,像财富一样,对于上、中、下三种根器的瑜伽士来说,不退转誓言是实现一切愿望的财富之首。这不退转的誓言,能从今生和来世的轮回恐惧或八种恐惧中拯救,因此也像伟大的城堡一样。八种恐惧是:火、水、武器、敌人、蛇、狮子、大象、食肉猛兽。有一种手印中是这样说的。总之,依靠这神圣的誓言,为了最终成就,它是前进道路的顶峰。安住于誓言本身,也是从轮回的洪流中解脱出来的大船。同样,为了成就身语意的成就和共同的成就,它是神圣的方法,或者说,因为不需要从其他地方寻找,所以它也是所要成就的本质。具有誓言的人不会被障碍所阻碍,因此进入伟大的菩提道,直到最终都能相伴并从中受益,所以它也是最好的朋友。这誓言对于那些失去智慧之眼的人来说,能引导他们走上正确的道路而不迷路,也不会走向悬崖,所以也就像瞄准目标的绳索一样。守护誓言而不退转,在成就菩提时,能摧毁障碍的军队、痛苦、魔和外道等其他阵营,所以就像军队一样。

What are the common explanations of the merits and metaphors of vows? Just as the tantras say, being able to protect the asceticism of vows without degeneration, one can obtain the desired merits accordingly. For example, it is like a wish-fulfilling jewel, which can realize the two kinds of achievements that I desire, and ultimately obtain the perfect supreme happiness. Therefore, all vidyadharas and buddhas arise from the non-degeneration of vows, so vows are the mothers of their rebirth. Similarly, this sacred vow of supreme asceticism, abiding in the vow, is the basis upon which all paths and fruits depend, so it is also like the great earth. If one does not degenerate from the vow, one can nourish and maintain the great bodhicitta, and become the lifeblood of all true asceticism, so it is also like the life force. For example, like wealth, for yogis of superior, middling, and inferior capacities, the non-degeneration of vows is the best of all wealth that causes the arising of all desires. This non-degeneration of vows can save one from the fear of samsara in this life and the next, or from the eight fears, so it is also like a great fortress. The eight fears are: fire, water, weapons, enemies, snakes, lions, elephants, and ferocious carnivores. One mudra says this. In short, relying on this sacred vow, in order to ultimately achieve, it is the pinnacle of the path of progress. Abiding in the vow itself is also the great ship that liberates from the flood of samsara. Similarly, in order to achieve the siddhis of body, speech, and mind, and common siddhis, it is the sacred method, or because there is no need to seek from elsewhere, it is also the essence of what is to be achieved. One who possesses vows will not be hindered by obstacles, therefore entering the great path of bodhi, accompanying and benefiting from it until the end, so it is also the best of friends. This vow, for those who have lost the eye of wisdom, can guide them onto the correct path without getting lost, and will not lead them to the cliff, so it is also like a rope for aiming at a target. Protecting the vow without degeneration, when achieving bodhi, can destroy the army of obstacles, suffering, demons, and other camps such as heretics, so it is like an army.

也是儿子啊。不违背誓言,就像从轮回的战场上获胜的勇士一样。因此,两种守护也同时具备了。第三部分分为两点:显示差别和总结。第一部分有十点:讲述重要、必要的三种誓言,阐述二十八种共同誓言,讲述四种殊胜誓言,讲述二十三种苦行誓言,阐述二十种修行誓言,讲述四种行为习惯誓言,消除九种不能融入集会的过失,舍弃五毒,摧毁四魔,讲述见解的誓言。第一部分分为两点:概括地讲述和详细地阐述。第一点是:从“因此,神圣的”到“掌握三种的边际”之间讲述。因为誓言的功德如此广大,所以三世诸佛都由此而生,因此,神圣的理由确定无疑,殊胜乘的誓言,无论以何种方式,凡是神圣的瑜伽士,都要守护好自己的身语意三门,不作恶业,具备三种清净,掌握三种根本誓言的清净边际的基础。第二点是:从“此处有四证人”到“应当守护”之间讲述。如果想知道应当守护的誓言的根本和分支是什么,首先依次展示重要、必要誓言的:不羞愧之理、不违背之要、究竟之相三种。进入殊胜乘,在此处,如同经文所说,要恭敬不违背大自在上师、本尊神、殊胜道友和自己的心这四种证人。不以侍奉让上师羞愧,不以修行或守护让本尊羞愧,不以慈悲让道友羞愧,不以虚伪让自心羞愧。通过身语意三种方式清净,或者以神圣的方式出现,或者以三门没有过失的方式,或者以神圣同一的方式,通过了解三种清净的方式来取悦他们。不要因羞愧和后来的后悔而受到损害,要坚定地持有誓言,一定要守护,无论何时都不要放弃。

Also a son. Not breaking the vows is like a hero who triumphs over the battlefield of samsara. Therefore, both types of protection are complete at the same time. The third part has two points: showing the distinctions and concluding. The first part has ten points: explaining the three important and necessary vows, explaining the twenty-eight common vows, explaining the four special vows, explaining the twenty-three ascetic vows, explaining the twenty practice vows, explaining the four behavioral vows, eliminating the nine pairs of faults that cannot be integrated into the assembly, abandoning the five poisons, destroying the four maras, and explaining the vows of view. The first part has two points: briefly explaining and elaborating. The first point is: from "Therefore, the sacred" to "grasping the edge of the three." Because the merits of the vows are so vast, all the Buddhas of the three times arise from this, therefore, the sacred reason is undoubtedly certain, the vows of the supreme vehicle, in whatever way, all sacred yogis must protect their own three doors of body, speech, and mind, without committing evil deeds, possessing the three purities, and grasping the foundation of the pure edge of the three root vows. The second point is: from "Here are four witnesses" to "should be protected." If you want to know what the root and branches of the vows that should be protected are, first show in order the three aspects of the important and necessary vows: the principle of not being ashamed, the essence of not violating, and the ultimate sign. Entering the supreme vehicle, here, as the scriptures say, respect and do not violate the four witnesses: the great powerful master, the yidam deity, the supreme friend, and one's own mind. Do not let the master be ashamed by serving, do not let the yidam be ashamed by practice or protection, do not let the friend be ashamed by compassion, do not let one's own mind be ashamed by hypocrisy. Through the three ways of body, speech, and mind being pure, or appearing in a sacred way, or in a way that the three doors have no faults, or in a way that is sacredly the same, please them by understanding the three ways of purity. Do not be harmed by shame and later regret, hold the vows firmly, be sure to protect them, and never give up.

不应中断。此有四种证人:解脱相续的上师,灌顶殊胜的上师,开示口诀的上师,引导无明的上师,如是宣说的讲说方式也存在。不被上师、道友、本尊和自性所羞愧的四者,具有完全不退失的经部,或者具有根本、支分、近支、伴侣完全不退失的四种经部。释论中说:或者完全不退失,根本和支分不退失,伴侣不退失,近支不退失的体性,是简略的数目,根本续中宣说了五种。又说,如是守护究竟圆满,则四种大手印的标志之成就,誓言者聚集且威力强大,加持大且智慧生起,悦意出现且愿望成就,被众人恭敬且获得名声,连同这四种相,应当受持经部。总之,将誓言的意义系于忆念,对于破损和未破损的数目,每日每夜都应回向计数,破损的以四种方便忏悔,未破损的回向大菩提,譬如计数就像富人回向财富一样。如是根本续中也说:总之我的三门,执持清净三边的边际,不羞愧于本尊、道友、上师和自性,三种方式不损害,三种誓言,完全不退失四种经部,连同究竟圆满的四种手印标志,将经部意义在忆念中计数回向。如是具有调伏三门和烦恼傲慢的相续,安住于誓言稳固者,对于安住于智慧的智力和微小信心的地步,不能一时进入的具誓言殊胜之子们,对于十善和调伏律仪等,微细之又微细的支分,乃至微细的支分都不应浪费,为了自他的利益而精勤守护。第二是,从“身语意”到“成就所知”之间所表示的,根本所守护的是什么呢?应当如此守护,如幻化为上师的魔,以及阻断获得成就之间。

It should not be interrupted. There are four witnesses for this: the guru who liberates the continuum, the guru of supreme empowerment, the guru who shows the instructions, and the guru who guides ignorance; such a way of teaching is also present. The four that are not ashamed by the guru, Dharma brothers, deities, and one's own nature, possess the scriptures that are completely without loss, or possess the four scriptures that are completely without loss of root, branch, near branch, and companion. The commentary says: Or completely without loss, without loss of root and branch, without loss of companion, and the nature of without loss of near branch, is a concise number, and five are taught in the root tantra. It also says that if such protection is ultimately complete, then the accomplishments of the signs of the four great mudras, the oath-bound ones gather and are powerful, the blessings are great and wisdom arises, the pleasing appears and wishes are fulfilled, and being honored by many and gaining fame, together with these four aspects, one should hold the scriptures. In short, attach the meaning of the vows to mindfulness, and dedicate and count the number of broken and unbroken vows every day and night. Confess the broken ones with four methods, and dedicate the unbroken ones to great enlightenment, just as counting is like a rich person dedicating wealth. As it is also said in the root tantra: In short, my three doors, holding the edge of the three pure sides, not ashamed of the deity, friend, teacher, and self, three ways of not harming, three vows, completely without loss of the four scriptures, together with the ultimately complete four mudra signs, count and dedicate the meaning of the scriptures in mindfulness. Thus, those who have a continuum of taming the three doors and the pride of afflictions, and who abide in steadfast vows, for those excellent sons who abide in the power of wisdom and the ground of small faith, and who cannot enter all at once, the slightest of the slightest branches, even the slightest branch, of the ten virtues and the discipline vows, etc., should not be wasted, but should be diligently protected for the benefit of oneself and others. The second is, from "body, speech, and mind" to "accomplishment of what is to be known" is what is shown, what is the root to be protected? It should be protected in this way, like a demon who transforms into a guru, and cutting off the interval of obtaining accomplishments.
